A gesture in two moments: First the elevation of the original Nelson statue to put it on a goldleaf plated plinth (Centre d’Histoire de Montréal). The second was to commemorate the events of 1894, when 4 young men tried to blow up, unsuccesfully, the Nelson monument (Place Jacques-Cartier, Montreal). Bronze sculpture. Excerpt from the Court’s judgement.
